Late night. I took a step,
it lead me out my door
I found me walking 'long the cemetary wall
As I stepped through the gates
and drifted on the yard
I had a memory from the past

As I woke up - and it was already noon
I received a call

Taken the wrong lane down the road
Johnny's gone cashing out his name
Taken wrong turn out of the blue
Ran into that 18 wheeler

And we will never know
'cause dead men tell no tales

A story of a lonely man
with nothing left to lose
To face his destiny - so he did choose
Reason never known, maybe never will
Ghost upon his name, tomb upon the hill

Some of us remember him good
Some not all that well
He had nothing bad to say
In his heart the best of will
